用皮埃尔俄歇天文台的荧光探测器对大范围的空气簇射进行了量热测量。为了校正这些测量结果中大气波动的影响，天文台使用了几种仪器来记录探测器所在地及其上方的大气状况。在气溶胶光学厚度、气溶胶相函数和云识别等方面的研究取得了新的进展。此外，对于符合某些标准的宇宙射线事件，已经开发了一个快速监测程序，以提高重建的准确性。我们提出了一个更新的概述进行测量和应用空气簇射重建。
Calorimetric measurements of extensive air showers are performed with the fluorescence detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory. To correct these measurements for the effects introduced by atmospheric fluctuations, the Observa- tory operates several instruments to record atmospheric conditions across and above the detector site. New developments have been made in the study of the aerosol optical depth, the aerosol phase function and cloud identification. Also, for cosmic ray events meeting certain criteria, a rapid monitoring program has been developed to improve the accuracy of the reconstruction. We present an updated overview of performed measurements and their application to air shower reconstruction.
